(PG 46) A feeling of coldness and fear took hold of her. She felt far away from things and lonely.
She is realizing that enough will never be enough for Jody. He is going to continue to fix up the town and make a big voice for himself and gain power. This makes Janie feel cold and dark because this isn’t what she had in mind when she married him. She imagined that they were going to move to this town run by blacks, be part of the community and live happily together in love (lust). But she now realizes that this dream will never be what Jody truly wants and that he will never settle for it.
